MagneticOriginals's Profile

Bio

I'm a Magnet art artist from Minneapolis. Since 1996 I have signed and numbered over 29,900 pieces. My art is in collections throughout the world.
I was drawn to the magnetic media, because no other artist was using it the way I was. I saw other artist sticking a magnet to their art, I thought why not stick my art to the magnet. 12 years later I have found a few other artist using the magnetic vinyl in their own way, but no other artist in the world has used it like me. Everybody's style is unique. I still haven't found another magnet artist as prolific as myself.
If you look up my last name, Gauss, in the dictionary, it actually means unit of magnetic energy. I'm a distant cousin of the mathematician Karl Friedrich Gauss. He discovered the mathematical theory of magnetism. So in a way I'm following my destiny.
Custom pieces start at $12.00

ALL my pieces are on the best quality, archival, 60mil (1/16") thick "CHUNKY" magnetic vinyl. 3X thicker than most magnetic vinyl you'll find!

I'm looking for a new store front. I may end up at the Global Midtown Market @ Chicago & Lake in Minneapolis. I am planning on a bigger web presence and looking to put my art in several local galleries.

I'm gearing up for the local art shows this Summer.
